Forece all Users to Change Password (Not just on first login)

  • Hello,

    Thanks for a brilliant plugin!

    Following a site compromise, it would be desirable to force all users to change their password on their next login. With hundreds of users, it’s not practical to edit each user individually.

    Is there a method to accomplish this? I looked in the database but could not identify a table field to modify.

    And just a suggestion for the plugin if it is still maintained – these features would be tremendously helpful:

    1. On the main admin Users screen – a bulk edit option to select users to force a password change based on which users have the checkbox selected.

    Thanks for reading!

  • Nice plugin. Yes, this would be a good feature. To select all users to reset their password on next login.

    This can be done at the database:

    INSERT INTO wp_usermeta( user_id, meta_key, meta_value )
SELECT DISTINCT user_id,  'force_password_change',  'yes'
FROM wp_usermeta
WHERE user_id NOT
IN (

SELECT user_id
FROM wp_usermeta
WHERE meta_key =  'force_password_change'
)
